San Bernardino County residents are invited to exchange used oil filters for fresh ones during a recycling event in Victorville next month, county officials said.
The oil filter exchange will take place from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, June 14, at AutoZone, 14289 Highway 395, according to the San Bernardino County Fire Protection District, which is organizing the event along with the city of Hesperia and other partners.
Participants will be able to exchange one used oil filter per household for a voucher to purchase a new one, while supplies last, organizers said.

The vouchers will be valued at up to $15, county officials said. No exchanges or cash refunds will be offered.
